Agenda:

Join us on June 26, Thursday, for an open, casual meetup of founders and startup folks in Austin.

The eChai Startup Social is a simple idea — show up, grab a coffee or your drink of choice, and connect with people who are building, investing, or exploring what’s next. There’s no agenda, no stage — just real conversations in a relaxed setting. You pay for what you order, and take away whatever the conversation brings.

You might meet early-stage founders, team members, investors, or operators — or simply someone on a similar journey. Every city brings its own mix, and every gathering is its own vibe.

What makes this special? It’s part of a global moment. On the same day, these socials will take place across 20 cities — from San Francisco to Singapore, Dublin to Dubai, Surat to Seattle.

It's a quiet but powerful signal: wherever you are, you’re not building alone.

Come by. Say hello. See what happens.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"We found eChai to be a force multiplier throughout our startup journey. Through it, we connected with folks from DevX, Allevents, Plutomen, and more - many of whom became friends of IndiaBizForSale.com and even part of our clientele."

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."

"The eChai platform has been super valuable for me - it has helped me gain a deeper understanding of domains in the startup and tech ecosystem. What stands out most is the celebration of knowledge, professional growth, and entrepreneurship - it’s one of the best for the Indian ecosystem. Along the way, I’ve also been fortunate to make some great friendships and connections too."
